HUGH F. LYLE has not yet announced
himself CANDIDATE FOR TIE HOUSE OF
DELEGATES, but HUGH f. LYLE Il Co.,
VEsUvIUs, VIRGINIA, are still making
the best Plows and Plow Repairs ever Of
fered to Virginia farmers. The modern
chilled plows, complicated with their many
parts. screw bolts and other tricks. are too
high priced, and cost too much to keep up.
Farmers finding this true, are fast return
ing to the Use of the Livingston Plow,
which costs half less, both in first price
and repairs.
They also make repairs for many chilled
plows, which farmers can get through any
responsible merchant or dealer at these
prices: Oliver points. 40 cents; South
Bend, Roland and Remington points. 81
cents. LandsideS for above at 10 cents.
These goods are warranted all right. For
sale in Staunton by Burke s. Lewis, and
by John A. Wise.
In Fayette county, Ga, recently,
young man named Handy eloped with The
daughter of Farmer Stames. Four brot!
ers of Handy had previously married foul
daughters of Stames, although the latter
had objected to some of the marriages
When he heard of his last single daughter
elopement he was very angry, but aftel
thinking the matter over he said: Hang
it, if they want the whole family all right
I'll marry the old woman myself" HI
accordingly rode to the house of Mrs
Handy, whose husband died recently, pro
posed, was accepted, and the nuptial kno
was soon tied.

The Philadelphia Record is one OF the
best and wisest, and consequently one OF
plainest spoken Democratic newspapers in
The country. 1t says:
Between Mahoneism and modern De
mocracy in Virginia there IS little room
for choice. In fact, Virginia Democracy
according to its latest delIverance is poor
and feeble imitation of the worst vices of
Mahoneism. The tariff resolution, while
pretending to favor reduction OF duties, is
a tricky evasion borrowed from one OF
Randall's Pennsylvania platforms. This
species of double dealing on great ques
lion OF public policy is indignantly repu
dated by the Democrats everywhere save
in Virginia. There is one thing, however
about This Democratic platform in Vir
ginia which deserves commentator fol
It's frankuess. The Virginia Democrats
want the offices badly, and they DO not hes
itate to say So"

The Lima Daily Republican voice our
sentiments when 1t says: "There is
one custom that should be relegated to
the dark past, that Of people returning
thanks TO their neighbors and friends
for serviees Mt burials, as If christian
duty did not demand such services.
There Is not or cannot be gratitude for
duty, aud christian act is simply the
fuifiliment of duty's command. To
thank our friends for preparing the
funeral of our loved ones and following
their corpse to the graveyard is not on
" preposterous, but it is unchristian
and barbarous. Let us be done with
the offensive practice. If our life has
been such that we must bride our
neigbbors by n card of thanks to bury
us, leave us o. top rather than insult
our virtues by exaIting our vices.u
